Overview

300' of quick turns that connects Pettingel or Pt. 13,418 lines down to Herman Lake and the "Herman Gulch" skintrack.

Description

If you're skiing almost any line on Pettingel or Pt. 13,418, this small gully is a really fun way to get a few more steep turns in before pointing down the skin track and exiting the basin.

Aim carefully for the top of this gully on your descents, as the basin above it is relatively flat. If you link them properly this is a fantastic 1-2 punch of a few really nice gullies in Herman Gulch.
